I've had lots of fun over the last few days popping into WHSmith and signing copies of All Of Us Are Broken. Highlights included lovely Aimee at York station, and Carla who bought a copy on the spot from the books department at the main York shop ❤️

So happy this one is out in the world and thanks for all the amazing reviews on NetGalley - readers are why I write so do enjoy this twisty tale of marital deceit!

We cannot wait for this one. 😍
Fiona is an excellent interviewer, so we're thrilled to have her on board for our event with Richard Madeley.

On my way to meet a friend on this beautiful evening.

He must be telepathic. Or on X. He just messaged me 😂

Me on Friday: Please text me after your Biology exam to let me know how it went.
15yo: Sure. Yes. I definitely will.

Me today: Please text me after your English Lit exam to let me know how it went.

Happy publication day to Abir Mukherjee, an all-round lovely guy and super talented writer. Can't wait to read #Hunted .

I mean, what's not to love? #HeadsWillRoll

Lots of fun last night with these brilliant writers. A huge thank you to Chorleywood Bookshop and #ChorleywoodLibrary for hosting us. P.S. If you haven't read the latest books from Erin and Helen, I urge you to do so now. They're FANTASTIC. Signed copies are available at the book shop.

What a stack of books! Fab to see this lovely pile at WHSmith in Stansted airport. And on the shelves at Waterloo station.

So pleased you could be there for the Cast & Crew screening! Your beautiful girl is fabulous in the film and such a delight to work with. xx

All the colours of a spring night.
I love the pop of violet from the stray iris.

So proud of my girl at the premiere of her first film, CHAD, at London's gorgeous Picturehouse Central.
Congratulations to Park Bench Pictures for this terrific short - it made me cry! And it's pretty cool that my girl can now say she's starred in a film alongside Stephen Fry.

Such a joyous time at the Deepings Lit Fest today, which is now a firm favourite. We were looked after so wonderfully with a delicious lunch on the terrace, tea & cake, and a fantastic & engaged audience. Hats off to Veronica for stepping in to chair. Thank you for having me.

Arrived at the STUNNING Mr Molecey's Marvellous Mill, which is hosting Deepings Literary Festival today.
Set in 20 acres of glorious parkland, with its own water mill, this has to be the most stylish green room ever. It was also fab to hear Jack Jordan chat about his writing

My firstborn.
